L5 LILLY, Dealer OHIO VOTERS GET GOAGHIrtG Columbus, 0., June 27 Secretary of State Charles H. Graves this month will open and take personal charge of the largest summer school in politics in America. He will have on his list of enrolled students t VTCC '"0 vol-, ers t' zix.i c2 Ohio. His task will uo vi.at of conducting- a course by nail on liny t -n t-0 InX..-.!.;.- and r vj.iJdis that come be fore the voters of Ohio next fall. To do, this effectively he has been given an appropriation of $50,000 by the people of the state. Not only will Secretary Graves in struct the people on their rights and privileges in the fall election, but he must also, with rigid fairness and im partiality, see that each voter is giv en every opportunity to study fully both sides of every measure that is to be submitted to the people for ap proval or rejection. He must mail to every voter pamphlets containing the arguments advanced in favor of each submitted measure and at the same time mail a pamphlet containing the arguments against the measures as drawn up by the foes of the bill. Already Secretary Graves' prelim inary duties in this course of political study are far from light, and the peri od of the submission of referred meas ures has not yet arrived. As it stands he must see that the Ohio voters are properly instructed on the merits of four constitutional amendments, two providing for different forms of the "short" ballot, one for the exemption of public bonds and another -making women eligible for certain state po sitions. Besides these two other amendments, one calling for a classi fication of the general property tax and another for a smaller general as sembly are now being initiated and will be submitte d within a few weeks. He will also have to instruct the people on the referred measures. One of these is a referendum on the work in gm en's compensation act, passed by the state legislature, which is going to be referred back to the people, for final action. Other measures that are now being referred are bills seeking to disenfranchise students in educational institutions, the Cunningham agricul tural commission bill and several tax ation measures.
